Financial Planning Week
FP Canada™ and the Institut québécois de planification financière (IQPF) launched Financial Planning Week in 2009. Part of Financial Literacy Month (November), this national event, which takes place annually, is an opportunity to raise awareness about the benefits of financial planning and celebrate the profession.
Financial Planning Week 2022 takes place November 20-26, 2022.
